Hello flumazenil,

Can you post a pic of the dials, from the top?

Thanks,

Antonio

PS: Without more pics "I think" the one in the right side can be the fake one?

I agree, the one on the right looks fake. Printing of Date-Just looks off (maybe the picture), also the hands look a little short, and crown a little too spread out.

The right one is the fake.

SL filling of the minute hand goes to far towards the tip of the hand.

Minute markers slightly too far from the rehaut.

CRB too obvious.

Agreed....the shorter hands are a dead giveaway!!
